Stress-Reduced Direct Composite

Six Lessons Approach Podcast by Dr. David Alleman

The tops of teeth don’t matter… as much as the bottoms. The key to any biomimetic restoration is the direct component, which is why I describe biomimetic dentistry as a bottom to top approach. When I first learned of Simone Deliperi’s work and we began working and then teaching together, we both understood how this direct component needed to be carefully managed for a successful restoration. Deliperi’s Stress Reduced Direct Composite technique, which we co-authored a publication on in 2009, is a necessary tool for any dentist who aims for conservative dentistry.
